No one today is purely one thing. Labels like Indian, or woman, or Muslim, or American are not more than starting-points, which if followed into actual experience for only a moment are quickly left behind. Imperialism consolidated the mixture of cultures and identities on a global scale. But its worst and most paradoxical gift was to allow people to believe that they were only, mainly, exclusively, white, or Black, or Western, or Oriental. Yet just as human beings make their own history, they also make their cultures and ethnic identities. No one can deny the persisting continuities of long traditions, sustained habitations, national languages, and cultural geographies, but there seems no reason except fear and prejudice to keep insisting on their separation and distinctiveness, as if that was all human life was about. Survival in fact is about the connections between things; in Eliot’s phrase, reality cannot be deprived of the “other echoes [that] inhabit the garden.” It is more rewarding - and more difficult - to think concretely and sympathetically, contrapuntally, about others than only about “us.” But this also means not trying to rule others, not trying to classify them or put them in hierarchies, above all, not constantly reiterating how “our” culture or country is number one (or not number one, for that matter).

»Atlas Fractured« (2017), digital video by Theo Eshetu, Documenta 14

As one of the 31 faces, I am making an appearance in Theo Eshetu’s video essay on humanness under the lens of ethnicity, psychology, politics, and philosophy. A thoroughly thought-through work to (again) admit in all its heterogeneity and complexity – just like the last voice in the video says – that “we are more alike, than unalike.”

Other participants are: Elena Agudio, Martin Ambarra, Peter Becker, Richard Berger, Tawahinga Butt, Alfonso Serrano Clemente, Samuel Debbas, Eryka Dellenbach, Paul-Jasper Dittrich, Zoe Dunster, Theo Eshutu, Hafiz Hanafi, Viktoria Hellwig, Tiare Maldonado Hucke, Anneke Kaan, Clara Kueckelhaus, Mary Anne Maffiol, Ila Magdefrau, Samuele Malfatti, Diego Marchi, Meron Maricos, Noel Peiris, Meryl Prettyman, Karen Rathey, Judith Rosmair, Denise Sengül, Nicolas Simoneau, Amos Turner, Yasuyo Uemura, and Melanie Wiener.

»Atlas Fractured« (2017) Digital video projected on banner, color, sound, 35 min. (Kassel version) Coproduced by Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg GmbH; Berliner Künstlerprogramm des DAAD, Berlin; and Tarabya Cultural Academy Neue Neue Galerie (Neue Hauptpost), Kassel
